Well, you are partly right - AR repairs ships. AD reload torpedoes on DDs, AGP serve PTs, and AV and AVD serve Catalinas and other like planes.[:)]

CAP = Combat Air Patrol (putting fighters on patrol over your airfield or TF (task force).

LRCAP = Long Range CAP - your fighters take off from an airbase and patrol over a different area/hex.

Apparently, my computer thinks so: i tried copying the relevant sections from the manual to a text file, and the program won't let me do it today... even though i KNOW i've done it in the past... i am guessing one of the wonderful "upgrades" of something did in this function. [:(]
